WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a short story about someone being late for work, but from the perspective of their pet.

Changing the perspective of a story often brings surprising new elements to it – or can add amusing qualities to an otherwise mundane setting.

My Person Is Late

Dashing around Lost and found Keys again Coffee and then Leaving the house Quiet like a church mouse Hustle and bustle Return in a fussle She forgot her lunch On the counter, a bunch Bananas and apples Leaving her messy castle She forgot me My treat, you see I bark and whine But she hasn’t the time And again no walk I wish I could talk Can’t she take just one day off To spend some time to goof off But no the bills must be paid Look the bed isn’t made I wish I could help I’m just her pet, nothing else Oh look, here she comes She knows I’m the one She bends down and hugs me Tells me she loves me That she’ll be back real soon And for me to watch the room To be a good boy To play with my toys That I’m her precious sweet man And with a kiss, her day began Tessa🦋
